Last week I obtained myself some Taricha rivularis.
These beauty's are hard to come by and after a long time of searching if got my hand on these, 2 males and 2 females. Yahooo!

Aren't these by far the most beautifull Taricha species of them all? :D
Have a look at my T. rivularis ....... :)

Wow. I envy you! Thses are by far my favorite newt, but their habitat is quite remote. did you collect these yourself? if so i commend you, they are hard lil buggers to catch :)
 
Hi,

I haven't caught these myself, a german friend did.
Since they live most of the year hidden, i can imagine that they would be hard to find! :)
 
These newts are very cool but they do hide alot.I used to keep them and found them to be very shy except for 1 that would enter water at times.I would give them a water area atleast 2 to 3 inches if you plan on attemped breeding.Good luck with them.

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
